grave moments matter OF course
rather than as subject Of speculation.
He continued: eff q man understands
chemistry he can analyze person by his
nose, eyes, hair and the shape Of his
head. When the top of the head is
swayed, like the back of pack horse,
you will find man who has 8 good di-
gestion. He lives for the present, he is
not religious. His temperament is lvm-
phatic, and from this class of people come
the infidels. Carbon makes the eyes blue.
This may kill the sentiment of some
young men who imagine they can see the
light of heaven shining in their ladyleve's
blue eyes, but, IS scientific fact, it is
| simply carbon. The hair being dark is
the result of the presence of nitrogen
another piece of sentiment killed. All
color Is formed, or, is rather the result
| of the peculiar shape of the atom or
molecule forming the object, and the ef-
feet of light shining upon it. You can
tell mans religion by understanding
the elements which constitute him. The
blood is q religious element. The stomach
| is sardonapalian; it wants to eat, drink
and be merry. If man was not biased Oy
religious training, the nerVous-sanguine
would be Methodist, who could fervently
| profane day and honestly and fervent-
ly repent tomorrow. The sanguine and
bilious would be Presbyterians, who
would be forced by the very elements
constituting them to believe that long
before theBolrth of time some men were
! doomed to eternal damnation. A compo-
sition of the bilious, sanguine and lynn
pathlc would make orthodox Campbell
ltes, who would take their religion
straight from the Bible and would not
permit it to be filtered through any creed
or code superior to the plain text itself.
The purely bilious would be Baptists,
stern, unyielding, precise and SO on. A
chemical analysis Of man will tell just
to what church he would belong if the op,
pOrtunities were equal"

not err in overruling the motion for new
trial, as the materialitY of the new evil
dence was not shown. The judgment is
affirmed.
Loving Publishing Company vs.. n. B.
Johnson ct al, from Parker; opinion by
Willie, G. J. Appellant sued out an at
tachment against the goods of Surber &
Taylor, on which it was levied. The
goods were in the hands of Surber &
Taylor when the attachment was levied.
Appellees claimed the goods IN
Ger written agreement with
Surber & Taylor. This agreement
which was unrecorded was to the effect
that Surber 6 Taylor owed appellees
S1374.75 for stock of goods which they
were to receive, manage and dispose of
| in the course Of trade. Turber & Taylor
were to keep the stock replenished, to
pay appellees 500 and three-fourths of
the gross receipts every week, the title
to the said stock remaining in appellees
| till the whole consideration was paid and
on failure to pay as agreed appellees
were to keep the money paid and take
the goods. At the time of the attach
ment 5000 had been paid, and the
! stock had been several times replenished
so that it was impossible to identify the
original goods in stock. The court below
gave Judgment for appellees. A
| better device for the preparation Of
| fraud could not be invented. Surber &
Taylor were placed in position 30 have
ell the benefits of merchants without
| being subject to the usual liabilities.
| They hold themselves out to the world as
the owners of the goods when there was
a secret agreement to the contrary.
The policy of our statute is entirely
averse to allowing such a contract to
be supported against creditors. 1t
was not s. conditional sale or a
mortgage. To the portion of the goods
purchased after agreement appelIees had
no title to reserve. There are two or
three grounds on which to reverse the
Judgment below. The judgment is there
| fore reversed and rendered.
Frees & Son VS.. George Baker, from
San Saba; opinion by Willie, G. j. The
suretles to the appeal bond found in the
record are Reinhard & Co. and r. F.
Eisenlohr. The first is evidently &
partnership, but who constitutes
the firm does not appear. This is
not enough, for il Judgment go against
| appellant we have no means OF ascer-
tanning from the record the names of the
members of the firm. Again the sigma
ture was made by one Of the firm, it is
supposed, but if it was not authorized,
it was binding on no other member of
the firm than tie one who signed it.
! There is nothing before Us to show by
whom the bond was signed. For these
reasons the appeal is dismissed.

Homesick for Nnrmnn.1,.

Not very long ago two ladies stood be.
fore a picture Of a sunny hill slope. uU
which marched the golden ranks of a field
of wheat. Two brawny reapers-one a
man, the other a woman-were beginning
an attack on the rear guard of the golden
army. Just above the topmost ridge of
the wheat rose a line of cherry trees. and
peeping above the flank was the top of a
farm house chimney.
'Oh, that's Normanr' said the first
lady. "You never see that sky outside of
Normandy"
Yes, y said the second lady, in a tone
that hinted of a polite doubt.
'Those figures are Norman peasants To
the life, too, and the way the cherry trees
crown the ridge Oh, it makes me think
OF my summer among the Normans."
She sighed the sigh Of the traveller who
has come back to the United States and
found it hollow. The second lady said
nothing, but had she known that the wheat
field represented was not five miles from
the state house and that the Norman
peasants were Farmer MOriarty and his
industrious daughter, she must have felt
that her doubt was vindicated. Boston
